Premiering on 11 November 1993, this BBC comedy/drama series was set in Boot Street School where pupil-power ruled. The pupils – led by a select group of four from class 4D (known as “the management”) – taught themselves and made all the decisions.
No one quite knew how this situation came about, but the head teacher, Mr Lear (Roland MacLeod), had long since resigned himself to the situation. Not so, however, for Mrs Springit (Linda Polan), the deputy head, and the school caretaker, Dai Cramp (Richard Davies).
Idris Elba appeared in the series in one of his earliest roles.
